Abstract
This document describes the S/KEY* One-Time Password system as
released for public use by Bellcore and as described in reference
[3]. A reference implementation and documentation are available by
anonymous ftp from ftp.bellcore.com in the directories pub/nmh/...
Overview
One form of attack on computing system connected to the Internet is
eavesdropping on network connections to obtain login id's and
passwords of legitimate users. The captured login id and password
are, at a later time, used gain access to the system. The S/KEY
One-Time Password system is designed to counter this type of attack,
called a replay attack.
With the S/KEY system, only a single use password ever crosses the
network. The user's secret pass-phrase never crosses the network at
any time, including during login or when executing other commands
requiring authentication such as the UNIX commands passwd or su.
Thus, it is not vulnerable to eavesdropping/replay attacks. Added
security is provided by the property that no secret information need
be stored on any system, including the host being protected.
The S/KEY system protects against external passive attacks against
the authentication subsystem. It does not prevent a network
eavesdropper from gaining access to private information, and does not
provide protection against "inside jobs" or against active attacks
where the potential intruder as able to intercept and modify the
packet stream.

RFC 1760 The S/KEY One-Time Password System February 1995
Introduction
There are two sides to the operation of the S/KEY one-time password
system. On the client side, the appropriate one-time password must
be generated. On the host side, the server must verify the one-time
password and permit the secure changing of the user's secret pass-
phrase.
An S/KEY system client passes the user's secret pass-phrase through
multiple applications of a secure hash function to produce a one-time
password. On each use, the number of applications is reduced by one.
Thus a unique sequence of passwords is generated. The S/KEY system
host verifies the one-time password by making one pass though the
secure hash function and comparing the result with the previous one-
time password. This technique was first suggested by Leslie Lamport
[1].
Secure Hash Function
A secure hash function is a function that is easy to compute in the
forward direction, but computationally infeasible to invert. The
S/KEY system is based on the MD4 Message Digest algorithm designed by
Ronald Rivest [2]. Since the S/KEY authentication system went into
use, the MD5 Message Digest was released. We have chosen to continue
to use MD4 due the large number of client programs that have been
distributed. Some sites have generated functionally similar systems
based on MD5. Clearly clients and hosts must use the same secure
hash function to interoperate.
The S/KEY system one-time passwords are 64 bits in length. This is
believed to be long enough to be secure and short enough to be
manually entered (see below, Form of Passwords) when necessary.
The S/KEY system applies the secure hash function multiple times,
producing a 64 bit final output. MD4 accepts an arbitrary number of
bits as input and produces a 128 bit output. The S/KEY secure hash
function consists of applying MD4 to a 64 bit input and folding the
output of MD4 with exclusive or to produce a 64 bit output.
Generation of One-Time Passwords
This section describes the computation of the S/KEY one-time
passwords. It consists of a preparatory step in which all inputs are
combined, a generation step where the secure hash function is applied
multiple times, and an output function where the 64 bit one-time

RFC 1760 The S/KEY One-Time Password System February 1995
password is displayed in readable form.
The client's secret pass phrase may be of any length and should be
more than eight characters. As the S/KEY secure hash function
described above accepts a 64 bit input, a preparatory step is needed.
In this step, the pass phrase is concatenated with a seed that is
transmitted from the server in clear text. This non-secret seed
allows a client to use the same secret pass phrase on multiple
machines (using different seeds) and to safely recycle secret
passwords by changing the seed. (For ease in parsing, the seed may
not contain any blanks, and should consist of strictly alphanumeric
characters.) The result of the concatenation is passed through MD4,
and then reduced to 64 bits by exclusive-OR of the two 8-byte halves.
The following code fragment uses the MD4 implementation defined in
RFC 1320 [2] and defines the preparatory step:
strcpy(buf,seed);
strcat(buf,passwd);
MDbegin(&md)
MDupdate(&md,(unsigned char *)buf,8*buflen);
/* Fold result to 64 bits */
md.buffer[0] ^= md.buffer[2];
md.buffer[1] ^= md.buffer[3];
A sequence of one-time passwords is produced by applying the secure
hash function multiple times to the output of the preparatory step
(called S). That is, the first one-time password is produced by
passing S through the secure hash function a number of times (N)
specified by the user. The next one-time password is generated by
passing S though the secure hash function N-1 times. An eavesdropper
who has monitored the transmission of a one-time password would not
be able to generate any succeeding password because doing so would
require inverting the hash function.
Form of Passwords
The one-time password generated by the above procedure is 64 bits in
length. Entering a 64 bit number is a difficult and error prone
process. Some S/KEY system one-time password calculator programs
insert this password into the input stream, others make it available
for system cut and paste. Some arrangements require the one-time
password to be entered manually. The S/KEY system is designed to
facilitate this manual entry without impeding automatic methods. The
one-time password is therefore converted to, and accepted as, a
sequence of six short (1 to 4 letter) English words. Each word is
chosen from a dictionary of 2048 words; at 11 bits per word, all
Haller [Page 3]
RFC 1760 The S/KEY One-Time Password System February 1995
one-time passwords may be encoded. Interoperability requires at all
S/KEY system hosts and calculators use the same dictionary. The
standard dictionary is attached to this RFC.
Verification of One-Time Passwords
A function on the host system that requires S/KEY authentication is
expected to issue an S/KEY challenge. This challenge give the client
the current S/KEY parameters - the sequence number and seed. It is
important that the S/KEY challenge be in a standard format so that
automated clients (see below) can recognize the challenge and extract
the parameters. The format of the challenge is:
s/key sequence_integer seed
The three tokens are separated by single space characters. The
challenge is terminated by a blank or a newline.
Given the parameters and the secret pass phrase, the client can
compute (or lookup) the one time password. It then passes it to the
host system where it can be verified.
The host system has a file (on the UNIX reference implementation it
is /etc/skeykeys) containing, for each user, the one-time password
from the last successful login, or it may be initialized with the
first one-time password of the sequence using the keyinit command
(this command name may be implementation dependent). To verify an
authentication attempt, it passes the transmitted one-time password
through the secure hash function one time. If the result of this
operation matches the stored previous one-time password, the
authentication is successful and the accepted one-time password is
stored for future use.
Because the number of hash function applications executed by the
client decreases by one each time, at some point the user must
reinitialize the system of be unable to login again. This is done by
using the keyinit command which allows the changing of the secret
pass phrase, the iteration count, and the seed. A frequent technique
is to increment a trailing digit(s) of the seed and to reset the
iteration count (to something in range of 500-1000).
Clients
Several programs are available to calculate S/KEY one time passwords.
Included in the reference implementation are command line interfaces
for UNIX and PC systems (key), TSR interfaces for PCs (ctkey,
termkey, and popkey), and GUI interfaces for Macintosh and Windows
(keyapp and un-named Macintosh interface).
Haller [Page 4]
RFC 1760 The S/KEY One-Time Password System February 1995
The most basic calculator is the key command whose format is:
key [-n count] sequence seed
The optional count is used to display more than a single one time
password. This is useful to create a paper list of one time
passwords.
The most automated calculator is the termkey program that runs as a
Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) program on a PC. It scans the
screen to find the S/KEY parameters, prompts for the secret pass
phrase, and stuffs the one time password into the keyboard buffer.
Acknowledgements
The idea behind S/KEY authentication was first proposed by Leslie
Lamport [1]. The specific system described was proposed by Phil
Karn, who also wrote most of the reference implementation.
